Clear water runs rapidly over the stones
sun beating down like crystals from above
the river calls your name
you hesitate
be not afraid my child
become one with the river
it is your friend
waiting for you to join in
fear not the speed of the current below
become one with the current and
join in
the current is your friend, your ally
waiting to take you to your destination
the first step is the hardest
walk at your pace
step when you are ready
feel the water gently tumble over your toes
circling around your ankles
you are safe in the arms of love
move with the water
fighting no more
move elegantly along
letting the river move you still
the rivers knows your destination
let it take you there
remember to breathe when waters are fast
as they are part of the journey
fast waters are there to teach you lessons along the way
when waters become deep and slow
reflect on where you’ve been, the lessons learned
and prepare for what lies ahead
remember the importance of the slow water
as it too, has a lesson for you
go now child and remember
always go with the flow of the river
it is your friend.
